As the past tense of to gather, it means collected, obtained, or brought together.

As an adjective, it can mean collected, or grouped. But it also has a specific application to clothing. Fabric that is gathered is folded or drawn together, usually in parallel rows or pleats. A gather is often used where full sleeves meet the wrist cuff, or where a skirt connects to a bodice at the waist.
